Alentejo Bird Watching is an informative site regarding birds in the Alentejo region of Portugal. If you want to enjoy the birds on the 50 acre property of Monte Horizonte, you have found a perfect spot.

On our land we have more then 60 species of birds and the unknown but fantastic lagoon of Santo André is close by. During migration over 300 different birds can be spotted at the lagoon and it is only a 20 minute drive away.

We are happy to show you around and give you advise of where and when you can see specific birds.

Our 50 acres property is partly included in an ecological reserve and completely run on solar and wind-energy. It is located at only 5 kms from the historic town of Santiago do Cacém but you find total silence here.

Even the beach is only 15 kilometers away and relaxing at the pool is also an option. There is a selection of bird photos on our interactive Blog .

All information regarding our cottages, prices, availability and more can be found on our website:
